| On the air since June 2000, Gear Jammin' Gold is an independent Internet radio station currently heard worldwide
on Live365.com (which now charges its broadcasters and forwards fees to BMI,
ASCAP, SESAC, and SoundExchange). However, the recent ruling by the Copyright
Review Board in Washington to hike royalty rates is placing this station as well
as those offered by many small webcasters in jeopardy. US residents should write
their congressman now. The big record labels through the RIAA and
SoundExchange want to control what you hear. If you have options
that may assist in the continuation of the station, please forward information
as soon as possible.
The first all trucking internet station features truckin' &
travelin' music with Kay Adams, Bobby Bare, Stompin' Tom Connors, Dick Curless,
Johnny Dollar, Dave Dudley, Slim Dusty, Sonny George, C.W. McCall, Nev Nicholls,
Jerry Reed, Del Reeves, Red Simpson, Red Sovine, Dale Watson, the Willis
Brothers & more of your favorite artists from around the world 24 hours a day,
365 days a year. Currently, Gear Jammin' Gold rotates 288 selections (over 14
hours of music) into the playlist at any one time.
Due to the proposed CRB rate changes, you must use Live 365's player to
listen to the station, but don't forget to purchase the songs from this site.
